In this excerpt from Advancing RNA Live's Got Raw Materials? The State Of The mRNA Supply Chain featured guests share how they and their teams align around the definition of “phase-appropriate.”
As CRISPR technology evolves beyond the original Cas9, gRNAs are transitioning from simple targeting tools into highly engineered, complex molecules. In this Advancing RNA Live segment, speakers April Sena, Max De Long, and Venkat Krishnamurthy discuss how the rise of diverse nucleases — including prime editors — is impacting gRNA synthesis and purity.
With benefits across applications, nanoplasmids are designed to replace antiquated bacterial backbones, while eliminating antibiotic markers that can cause regulatory concerns.
The mRNA supply chain is undergoing massive growth in three particular areas. Here, speakers Khaled Yamout & Francoise Ribes walk us through the materials that have undergone the most scientific growth over the past few years and the impacts they’re noting these advancements having on the development of our mRNA drug substances and mRNA-LNP drug products.
